Red Hot Tires (1935)

old car racing
28 July 2021
Patricia Sanford is scouting a mini-car race for new talents for her father. Bob Griffin is the arrogant top Sanford driver. He has his eyes set on Patricia but she has no interest. Their mechanic Wally Storm brags that he's a better driver and Patricia likes him more. A jealous Bob has him fired. Bob comes up with a dirty dangerous trick. Bob gets killed by his own antics and Wally goes on trial.

I expected a whole movie with Bob and Wally battling on the race tracks. This is not what I expected. It's not better. Chances are it's much worst. First, this must be the easier pardon ever received. The DA almost jumps out of his chair to advocate for it. The escape makes little sense and the rest of the movie suffers for it. I think they had phones back then. It makes even less sense for him to return. Despite the bad plot, it's still fun to see the old cars racing. It's something at least.
